What fuel do you use poll
90-93 with up to 10% ethanol
90-93 non-ethanol 93+ racing fuel E85 Other |
it's called "Super+" here, 98 octane and up fuel. the two bigger fuel chains, Aral and Shell, have 102 and 100 octane fuels on tap, I usually go for the Aral stuff with 102 octane.
|
Shell 91-VPower. Cali, loaded up with ethanol
|
Shell 93
|
I have only used shell 93 v power since I've had it and its all I ever used in both my s2000's and my evo x. It's the best fuel available in my area
|
Sunoco 93 (10% ethanol), usually.
|
If I could find gas without ethanol I would find it, but in California that's hard to find. So I'm at 91 Octane and voted with 10% ethanol.
|
93 w/ ethanol. I with there was a non-ethanol station near me, but the closest one is nearly 30 miles away, and you have to be a member of a yacht club to fill up there.
|
93 octane V-power only, has ethanol
|
I thought this would be a great topic to discuss, I just switch from using 92 at chevron with up to 10% ethanol to a Conoco 90 non-ethanol. It is .50 cents more that the premium 92 with up to 10%. I think is really makes a difference in throttle response and power in general. I am on my second fuel tank of it and the mpg is up also, I'll give it more time before I give a number of how much but it's at least 1-2 mpg ave better
|
which one is the 93 octane you get from QT?
|
E85 now :)
|
I use 94 octane from Chevron.. Its not racing fuel though.
|
The octane ratings are tad bit different for the international users!
|
91 E10 at the cheapest convenient station. Crickets are gone now at 11k miles, and when I tried the more expensive stuff 5k miles back and the crickets only got louder (shell I think).
|
BP 93 Octane, best gas out there

Oddly, so far the 10% Ethanol crowd seems to almost exactly mirror the cricket poll numbers.
|
93 Shell w/corn
93 Mobile w/corn Quit BP after they destroyed the gulf. |
Chevron 94 E0.
|
91 ethanol free. In NS the highest we have is 91, and all stations are 0 E.

93 Mobil, no crickets no chirps with 8xx miles.
*fingers crossed* |
Only place with 93 close to me is BP so thats what goes in, if no BP then I get 91 from QuikTrip. Just started getting crickets in the last 200 miles and have about 5500 on the car.
|
Only used Shell V-Power. 91/93, whatever's available.

I use 93 ethanol-free and voted accordingly. But I just did a search for an E85 source near my house. Last I checked, the nearest one was over 90 miles away, but now there is one <12 miles from my house.
Is it better to run this in a completely stock car? I know the high horsepower guys use it, but is it good for engine longevity outside of racing? If E10 is bad for most cars, it seems like E85 would be horrible. |
in cali there's no e85 around me so 91 :\
|
I use either Petro Canada Ultra94 with 10% crickets, or Shell V-Power 91 which has no ethanol in my area.

I wouldn't use E85 stock or otherwise without being tuned for it.
|
California 91 :(
I like to only use Shell, although when I got the car it came with a free tank of gas and on the road trip back I filled with Chevron once. But now that I'm able to, Shell will be my choice |

Shell V-Power 93 with 10% Ethanol
|
What I we use the lowest grade does it hurt the engine?
|
wat
|
I meant to say, what is the lowest grade can we use. Will there be a major difference if we use a lower grade?
|
91 octane would be the lowest octane you would want to use.
|
BP 93 all the way! lol
